An old photo from a flea market - no info on it.

Good thing that oil can is on the other side of the seat!

Neat Pic!
Interesting how the mixer is mounted or maybe they were working on it. What is laying on the seat all the way to the left.
Engine appears to be a member of the Detroit family

Here is an enlargement of what ever is laying on the seat. I can't tell if it is an oiler or carb part. It looks like there is a Schebler carb body or something else screwed onto the bottom of the Detroit mixer that is on the engine.

Fishing rod with linen line by the look of it. Almost like a Wilcox-Crittenden steering wheel. Sash cord to the rudder and probably old sash weight pullies let into the gunwales to run it on?

Battery box in the foreground and a priming cup on the spark plug; does the plug help to ID the engine?

Good spot Ernie, that does look like some kind of putty holding it all together.

If engines were, what engines seem,
and not the engines of our our dreams,
but only putty, brass and paint,
how quick we'd chuck em, but they ain't!

Sorry Rudyard!
